Farmer plead for education on dog worrying after prize cow attacked

A blackbrook Rowena prize cow has been shot dead after being frightened and suffering horrific leg injuries. Farmer Tori Stanley is calling for farmers to take the lead to educate the public before more of these attacks happen.

“It is so simple for the public to solve this problem but it is nearly impossible for farmers.”
